    Aah holidays, the sun, the sea and the golden sand.

    I personally love Greece in spring time. The terrain is beautiful, the temperature is not too hot, the people are friendly and the cheese is glorious, especially on freshly baked bread with olives. Another great thing is that you can see the glory of classical history almost everywhere you go. There is the acropolis at Athens and the ruins of Sparta. If you explore further into the countryside you can see how glorious greek food is produced. There is also a large amounts of bars and posh restaurants in Athens for night out with splendid food. I would most certainly suggest a holiday in sunny Athens to anybody.

    Sicily/Northern Italy (would be Naples, but it's too damn humid).
    I love the organised chaos and insane drivers.

    I'd really like to go to Canada also. I love camping and hiking, and an outdoors holiday in the terrain they have there would be wonderful.

    Rio sounds nice as well, mostly for the ladies, to be honest.

    We'll have booze and broads waiting for ya at the airport.

    A couple of buddies are planning a road trip to B.C. next summer. They might drive up B.C. through the Rockies to the Yukon. If so, I'm going to fly to Whitehorse and meet them. From there it's a day's drive to Dawson and another up the Dempster Highway to Eagle Plains and the Arctic Circle. A dream come true for me.

    I was in the Yukon several years. Incredible terrain. Huge and empty. I've always wanted to go back. I like a place where you get woken up by the dog barking in the hotel room next to you. Woof.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
